Last night around 11:00EST the Halfling Commandos (http://my.ddo.com/guild-sarlona-halfling_commandos/) launched their airship.

We are not the first on the server. Not second either, not even in the top ten. Or the top twenty. Maybe in the top 25?

But who cares about any of that we are airborne! She's a beauty too. Chock full of ... mailbox ... cheaply available prests ... and many other interesting and tavern-like accoutrements.

Otto the tackling dummy is no match for Oriental Adventures (http://my.ddo.com/character/sarlona/oriental/)

The final night of the renown sprint was extra fun! Countdowns posted in Guild chat, people running out to adventure zones to chalk up the last 500. And then, finally, launch! Excitement - and of course naked halfling dancing - everywhere.

Coin Serf (http://my.ddo.com/character/sarlona/coin/) and Navigator Pawlo look for the most profitable trade routes

No doubt, there are aspects of the airships that are less than perfect. I've already posted some criticisms (http://forums.ddo.com/showthread.php?t=256324), and they still hold true. Most of all I don't like that the new system pressures us to change the way the guild works regarding inactives and/or occasional players.

But all that is for another post. Tonight is for celebration! The airship is up, we win (even if only in a limited fashion)! And we are having a great time with our new toy!

Bon Voyage!

did you get a discount on the extra small ship, or did they charge you more to make it halfling sized?
